A Choice for Life
Players, beware: your choice of school is irrevocable. Be very sure you have chosen the school you want to represent from start to end because there's no going back. On the other hand, if you have made the right choice then this piece of news should cheer you up: every game you win will contribute to your school's cause. Thanks to Season Showdown, you can now support your school while still having fun!
Schedule
Season Showdown is patterned after the actual schedule of the regular college football season. There is, however, a month's interval between the release of the game and the start of NCAA football in the real world. Think of this as the Season Showdown pre-season and you can cool your heels by earning extra credits for your school. The more credits your school has, the easier it will be for your school to reach the championship.
Upon commencement of the regular season, your school shall face a different opponent every week. Whichever team your school's facing in the real world should be your virtual opponent as well.
Those who win in their respective divisions will then battle for the conference title. The top 32 schools still have a chance though, as they fight it out in a single elimination tournament.
How to Win a Match-Up
There are five categories that determine a school's win over their weekly match-up. The school that tops any three of those five categories shall be declared the victor. The categories are listed below.
Games vs. CPU
If you're not ready to face a live or online opponent then no worries because you can just go head to head against a CPU opponent and your win will still contribute credits to your school.
Games vs. Showdown Opponent
Look up which team your school is squaring off for the week and find a player that represents the said team.
Games Online vs. the Nation
Winning a game against any team that isn't listed as your showdown opponent for the week will be credited to this category.
NCAA Trivia Challenge
This challenge is available during the pre-season and allows you to earn extra credits for your school. For regular season, questions pertaining to the current season will also be included. Your goal is to help your school make it to the top 50 for the week. NCAA Trivia Challenge may be accessed even by individuals who don't own the game.
